These accounts may have aided Brigham Young when he was shepherding the Mormons west to build a new home in the mountains and valleys of Utah. The Lure of Minerals When in 1850 the federal government set up the Utah Territory, almost all of Nevada was included except the southern tip, which was then part of New Mexico. Non-Mormons had been averse to settling in Mormon-dominated territory, but after gold was found in 1859 non-Mormons did come into the area. A rush from California began and multiplied manyfold as news of the Comstock Lode silver strike spread. Most of the newcomers preferred to consider themselves as still being within California, and a political question was added to the general upheaval. Meanwhile, miners came helter-skelter, raising camps that grew overnight into such booming and raucous places as Virginia City. Partly to impose order on the lawless, wide-open mining towns, Congress made Nevada into a territory in 1861 as migrant prospectors and settlers poured in. The territory was then enlarged by increasing its eastern boundary by one degree of longitude in 1862. It was rushed into statehood in 1864, with Carson City as its capital. President Lincoln (in order to get more votes to pass the Thirteenth Amendment) had signed the proclamation even though the territory did not actually meet the population requirement for statehood.

The History Of The Nevada Rotary Club Willis Shaw The Nevada Rotary Club got its first start one afternoon in February, 1922, while Frank Flack, local manager of the Iowa Railway and Light Company, was en route from Ames to Nevada in company with Luther Aasgard, publisher of the Nevada Representative. Frank suggested to Luther that there should be a Rotary Club in Nevada. Marshalltown is called the parent club, because it was through their efforts, and especially the efforts of their secretary, Edgar A. "Shorty" Francis, that the required meetings were held on March 15 th th , April 4 th th , and May 2 nd . The charter was presented in the Library on May 19 th Since its organization, the Nevada Rotary Club’s achievements in Nevada have consisted of steady and traditional contributions to community life, to education, and to international study. In 1949 Bob Walters was one of 73 worldwide scholars selected by the Rotary Foundation for advanced study overseas. Bob joined the Nevada Rotary Club in October, 1951, and is still a member. In the 1960’s the club enhanced the local cultural scene by importing "big bands" for concerts, and sponsored a Travel and Adventure Series of movie-lectures that attracted large crowds. th nd The Nevada Rotary Club has supported local and foreign study opportunities through scholarship programs. In 1990 Richard Selby was given funding to assist him with Russian language studies, which led to his working in Russia through Iowa State University developmental projects. Jeff Wilson, of Colo, received a Rotary International Scholarship for the 1990-91 school year at the Universidal Autonoma of Guadalajara, in Jalisco, Mexico. Ann Marie Golgerty of Colo-NESCO High School, was a non-Rotarian member of the Group Study Exchange team that visited South Central India in 1995. Nevada Rotarian, Claudia Nehring, hosted Guy Taningvong of Thailand in 1993-94.

The Roar and the Silence by Ronald M. James A History of Virginia City and the Comstock Lode The Roar and the Silence chronicles the area's history from its earliest days through the early twentieth century, when the lode finally gave out and the Comstock sank into silent decay, and up to the present, when Virginia City and its environs found new life, first as a community of bohemians and artists, and more recently as a tourist attraction offering a taste of the frontier experience to visitors from around the world. James's text brings the Comstock to life again in all its complexity and boom-and-bust excitement. This book offers a wealth of new information and insight into the history of one of the Old West's most storied areas.

The buildings in this district were constructed from 1876 until 1920 and served as the center for business and recreation. A little known fact was that Jack Dempsey, famed boxer of the 1920's, was discovered in Wells while working as a bouncer for the Bullshead Saloon. This fact is disputed on both sides of the tracks as to whether this is true or not and yet no matter which tale one chooses to adhere makes for a very colorful story either way.
